We went down the rabbit hole, and we did not like what we saw. Katherine (Nina Dobrev) came back and used Jeremy’s (Steven R. McQueen) blood to raise Silas so she could snag the cure. Then the ancient witch snapped Jer’s neck and the screen faded to black.

Is this the end of poor little Gilbert? According to Zap2It — maybe: “Next week's episode is a pivotal one, and unfortunately, until then, fans will just have to sit tight.”

Oh, great. Elena (Nina Dobrev) seemed out of her mind with grief and with the idea that her brother could somehow be brought back. Earlier, Kat Graham (Bonnie Bennett) said that a death was coming and it’s so big that “It will completely alter everything." Jer fits the bill.

And what about Tyler (Michael Trevino)? He’s done tons of disappearing acts before, but never has Klaus (Joseph Morgan) been so gung-ho to kill him. “No decision has been made yet as to when or ifTrevino will rejoin the cast, and whether it will be in a regular or recurring capacity. A return this season is very unlikely,” Zap2It reports.
